WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:14.240 This is Hacker Public Radio Episode 3,946 from Monday the 18th of September 2023. 00:14.240 --> 00:19.240 Today's show is entitled, planning for a planner part 2. 00:19.240 --> 00:24.720 It is hosted by some guy on the internet and is about 36 minutes long. 00:24.720 --> 00:27.400 It carries a clean flag. 00:27.400 --> 00:40.920 This summary is, scoty and bumblebee discussed as found planners, agendas, ink pens, and more. 00:40.920 --> 00:43.520 Previously on Hacker Public Radio. 00:43.520 --> 00:44.800 So it depends where you go. 00:44.800 --> 00:48.040 The one's a Dollar Tree that I have cap, not great, in my opinion. 00:48.040 --> 00:54.760 Alright, I'm just going to put this out here that she's totally wrong and believe nothing 00:54.760 --> 00:58.120 she has to say from this point forward. 00:58.120 --> 01:01.880 We return to normal broadcasting or something like that. 01:01.880 --> 01:07.320 Well, that's another thing, since you mentioned the ruler, that's a good point too because 01:07.320 --> 01:13.000 what I do is so happy planner has, they have these dividers, there are many dividers, 01:13.000 --> 01:17.680 so they're like a quarter of the page, okay, so they're not a whole entire page, they're 01:17.680 --> 01:24.000 like a quarter of it or so roughly, they're made for bookmarks, that's another thing 01:24.000 --> 01:29.680 is really good to have with these, is they put them in the disc biners to make it as a bookmark 01:29.680 --> 01:32.920 for your pens that you make color coded. 01:32.920 --> 01:40.560 So let's say you use black, blue, red, and I don't know, yellow, okay, you several 01:40.560 --> 01:42.920 different colors, but let's just use those. 01:42.920 --> 01:46.680 If you don't use those colors all the time for the same things, you want to also have 01:46.680 --> 01:50.360 a key because before you know it, you might just be adding different colors for different 01:50.360 --> 01:55.320 things and totally forgetting what you know, that red was made for really like appointments 01:55.320 --> 02:01.960 and then black was just normal and blue was made for household stuff or whatever. 02:01.960 --> 02:03.960 And that's what I use for that. 02:03.960 --> 02:09.680 So I use like dividers or I use bookmarks. 02:09.680 --> 02:12.920 So they have lots of bookmarks for the disc bin. 02:12.920 --> 02:14.920 They're actually really easy to make. 02:14.920 --> 02:21.680 Again, if you buy the whole puncher, you can make covers, bookmarks, dividers. 02:21.680 --> 02:23.760 You name it really easily. 02:23.760 --> 02:30.640 I have three binder, three dividers in my book for my Pacific one. 02:30.640 --> 02:33.000 One is for the actual months. 02:33.000 --> 02:37.480 One is for notebook paper and one is for scheduled events. 02:37.480 --> 02:41.360 So I have flyers in my book that I want to schedule this. 02:41.600 --> 02:46.800 And what I'm understanding with that whole punch, like if you, if you were to get like the 02:46.800 --> 02:51.440 plastic material that that a bookmark or whatever is normally made out of, you just punch 02:51.440 --> 02:53.480 it and then stick it in the rings. 02:53.480 --> 02:54.480 Mm-hmm. 02:54.480 --> 02:55.480 Absolutely. 02:55.480 --> 03:00.080 What believe you're not, I used Dollar Tree folder. 03:00.080 --> 03:01.920 I got a folder from Dollar Tree. 03:01.920 --> 03:02.920 The. 03:02.920 --> 03:03.920 Yeah, that's one. 03:03.920 --> 03:05.920 That's exactly what I'm talking about. 03:05.920 --> 03:06.920 Yeah. 03:07.360 --> 03:11.680 To the size that I wanted whole punched it and used it as one. 03:11.680 --> 03:15.520 They have totally and it would get that where to get the whole punch. 03:15.520 --> 03:21.440 The whole puncher that I got specifically, I bought from, I believe I bought it from 03:21.440 --> 03:22.440 Joanne's. 03:22.440 --> 03:24.480 That's another store that I did mention earlier. 03:24.480 --> 03:30.680 Joanne's for people that I don't know, Joanne's has a contract with happy planner. 03:30.840 --> 03:38.680 So Joanne's will get the newest stuff and more quality than in quantity than any of the 03:38.680 --> 03:39.280 stores. 03:39.280 --> 03:41.360 Yeah, they always have a ton of them in there. 03:41.360 --> 03:43.840 I noticed that's where I see a lot of them at. 03:43.840 --> 03:44.840 Yeah. 03:44.840 --> 03:50.000 I see Ross also has some in there, but Joanne's is like loaded and they even have all 03:50.000 --> 03:53.720 the accessories because they were the first ones to start selling it. 03:53.720 --> 03:58.600 So they started selling them with Joanne's besides their website and do this. 03:58.680 --> 04:00.400 So they're gonna start with them. 04:00.400 --> 04:01.400 Absolutely. 04:01.400 --> 04:05.600 Yeah, because I'm thinking that's I want the plane guts to like a like line paper guts or whatever 04:05.600 --> 04:07.640 do they sell that. 04:07.640 --> 04:08.640 Be more specific. 04:08.640 --> 04:14.040 Do you mean like the planner or just line notebook paper or like basically line notebook paper 04:14.040 --> 04:16.920 that I can put inside these rings or can I use it? 04:16.920 --> 04:17.920 Absolutely. 04:17.920 --> 04:18.920 Okay. 04:18.920 --> 04:19.920 Yeah, because that's what I want. 04:19.920 --> 04:20.920 Absolutely. 04:20.920 --> 04:24.080 I like to draw my planner out because I've just been doing it for, you know, with notebook 04:24.080 --> 04:25.080 for so long. 04:25.080 --> 04:28.560 I kind of want to keep that going and it allows me to customize to what. 04:28.560 --> 04:34.240 I need when I need it and with this whole punch I can punch out of a bookmark and be 04:34.240 --> 04:36.600 good to go and same thing with dividers as well. 04:36.600 --> 04:40.480 So you can actually separate like, you know, have the divider for like these are the 04:40.480 --> 04:41.480 old months. 04:41.480 --> 04:44.520 I don't want to have to go back to them unless absolutely have to. 04:44.520 --> 04:50.040 And, you know, or this is where I want to keep notes have versus the actual calendar 04:50.040 --> 04:51.040 of material. 04:51.040 --> 04:52.040 That kind of thing. 04:52.040 --> 04:53.040 Yeah, that's fantastic. 04:53.040 --> 04:57.280 Yeah, because I have, I do scrap paper a lot. 04:57.280 --> 05:04.600 Let's say I, you know, was in class or whatever and I didn't have time to search for the 05:04.600 --> 05:06.400 date of date or whatever. 05:06.400 --> 05:11.440 I can just flip my page, flip my book to the back of the book, quickly write a couple 05:11.440 --> 05:16.000 notes down and then close my book and then later on that day I can move that page. 05:16.000 --> 05:17.000 It happens all the time. 05:17.000 --> 05:18.000 Believe you're not. 05:18.000 --> 05:19.600 And I have that ability to do that. 05:19.600 --> 05:20.600 Yeah, I know. 05:20.600 --> 05:24.800 Other planners who don't, I do have four school. 05:24.800 --> 05:30.080 I go to Walmart, wherever you can buy them, just regular loose sleeve binder paper. 05:30.080 --> 05:34.920 The one that has three holes, my book is not the big planner. 05:34.920 --> 05:40.520 The big planner I believe is the pages are eight and a half by 11. 05:40.520 --> 05:41.520 I believe. 05:41.520 --> 05:44.720 But the small planner is seven by nine inches. 05:44.720 --> 05:46.360 I just get that paper. 05:46.360 --> 05:51.200 I cut it to that size and then I hope on it. 05:51.200 --> 05:57.520 And again, loose leaf paper is not as thick as the regular happy planner paper to be mindful 05:57.520 --> 05:58.520 for that. 05:58.520 --> 06:01.600 But when I'm just doing notes for school, it's very simple. 06:01.600 --> 06:06.000 What's the significance of that when you say that it's not as thick as the happy planet 06:06.000 --> 06:09.120 paper, what should we be on the lookout? 06:09.120 --> 06:12.760 Should we choose to use loose leaf anyways? 06:12.760 --> 06:16.640 What problems would we run into since it's thinner? 06:16.640 --> 06:21.520 Obviously, it's ripping because it is thinner paper, so you just have to be more careful 06:21.520 --> 06:22.520 with that. 06:22.520 --> 06:27.560 But since it isn't a discount, it is safer that way, but it's just like if you have 06:27.560 --> 06:33.920 it in a notebook, if you have it in a spiral, if you have it in a binder, it's still thinner 06:33.920 --> 06:34.920 paper. 06:34.920 --> 06:35.920 It's more see-through. 06:35.920 --> 06:38.560 It's just the paper itself. 06:38.560 --> 06:39.560 What is it? 06:39.560 --> 06:43.640 Okay, I thought that it might fall off the disk faster, so I'm like that because it's thinner. 06:43.640 --> 06:45.400 It does happen sometimes. 06:45.400 --> 06:53.840 So I make sure I put, when I do mine, I make sure I have at least 50 to 100 in the book. 06:53.840 --> 06:56.640 Because that's how old I'm still to get it. 06:56.640 --> 06:57.640 Exactly. 06:57.640 --> 07:03.920 And then I definitely, definitely make sure I have it when I'm traveling with it. 07:03.920 --> 07:07.960 I have the bound part facing down. 07:07.960 --> 07:13.000 I know that sounds really goofy, but for some reason, when you have it facing, it like 07:13.000 --> 07:17.000 puts so much pressure on the tip of the cover. 07:17.000 --> 07:22.000 So I put the bound downwards, not upwards, and that seemed to help. 07:22.000 --> 07:23.000 Okay. 07:23.000 --> 07:25.000 I don't know if I'm explaining that right. 07:25.000 --> 07:28.560 Yeah, like the source is sitting with the rings at the bottom. 07:28.560 --> 07:29.560 Mm-hmm. 07:29.560 --> 07:30.560 That's what I do personally. 07:30.560 --> 07:36.200 And then make sure it's like with other objects, like just leaning up against something. 07:36.200 --> 07:39.800 Now, have you ever tried the rocket book? 07:39.800 --> 07:40.800 Nope. 07:40.800 --> 07:41.800 Never even heard of it. 07:41.800 --> 07:46.440 The book was supposed to be this great little idea, where you had a book that you never 07:46.440 --> 07:47.840 had to throw away. 07:47.840 --> 07:50.960 It was basically laminated pages. 07:50.960 --> 07:53.880 Each of the pages had a QR code on them. 07:53.880 --> 07:57.480 You would get the rocket book app, and you would use these special pins. 07:57.480 --> 08:01.120 They were not exactly dry, race pins, but something similar. 08:01.120 --> 08:05.120 You know, some kind of ink you go wipe away with a microfiber cloth, that kind of thing. 08:05.120 --> 08:06.120 Okay. 08:06.120 --> 08:10.600 You were right on the book, and once you got your notes in and you started filling up 08:10.600 --> 08:16.600 the book, basically you use the app, scan the page, but you know, it would take like 08:16.600 --> 08:23.440 a picture of the page with that QR code on it and categorize it in the app for you. 08:23.440 --> 08:26.520 And then you could just wipe the book clean and start all over again. 08:26.520 --> 08:27.520 Okay. 08:27.520 --> 08:29.520 I have heard of some. 08:29.520 --> 08:34.200 I have not heard of that brand specifically, but I have heard of some like that. 08:34.200 --> 08:36.160 I don't oppose of the idea. 08:36.160 --> 08:37.160 I really don't. 08:37.160 --> 08:38.160 I oppose it. 08:38.160 --> 08:51.560 The reason why I agree with that is I wouldn't want to spend all my time erasing everything 08:51.560 --> 08:52.560 for one thing. 08:52.560 --> 08:59.040 And then to, I don't know, is it something about like, if you have to erase it with my 08:59.040 --> 09:03.520 microfiber cloth, is it really staying on there when you close the book? 09:03.520 --> 09:04.520 That would be my thing. 09:04.520 --> 09:08.240 If you close the book, if it's made with the dry erase marker or type of whatever, 09:08.240 --> 09:12.440 does it really erase like those are raceable pens that don't really have many of them anymore, 09:12.440 --> 09:14.120 but they used to have these are raceable pens. 09:14.120 --> 09:15.120 I remember that. 09:15.120 --> 09:21.480 I feel like I feel like when you, when you're raised, you still saw some of the residue, 09:21.480 --> 09:22.880 like worse than a pencil. 09:22.880 --> 09:28.720 Here's what I'm going to point out with this whole concept of the rocket book. 09:29.480 --> 09:35.200 The pages were like some sort of laminated card stock page or whatever, right? 09:35.200 --> 09:40.080 So in order for you to get the pen to write on it, you had to be pretty forceful. 09:40.080 --> 09:44.120 And it would write sort of half on to the page. 09:44.120 --> 09:50.200 So it would be very, very sketchy, like, almost like your pen was running out of ink. 09:50.200 --> 09:51.040 Okay. 09:51.040 --> 09:58.120 Two, if you ever left the pen in any kind of temperature differences, it would ruin the pen. 09:58.200 --> 10:02.080 I left the pen in the car one day and it ruined the pen. 10:02.080 --> 10:04.200 And you could only use their pens. 10:04.200 --> 10:06.280 They were no alternative pens. 10:06.280 --> 10:09.440 Well, some people said you could use alternative pens. 10:09.440 --> 10:13.840 They talked about something that you could use, but there were constant reviews that talked 10:13.840 --> 10:19.800 about how those pens ended up ruining the book, meaning you wrote on the page with that 10:19.800 --> 10:22.040 pen and then you could not erase it. 10:22.040 --> 10:23.040 Uh-huh. 10:23.040 --> 10:27.320 Now the last thing I want to mention about it, because you had to use so much force to get 10:27.320 --> 10:31.880 the pen to write on the book, even though you were able to erase the ink off of it, 10:31.880 --> 10:32.880 the application. 10:32.880 --> 10:35.880 Yeah, the impression was still on the page. 10:35.880 --> 10:36.880 It was. 10:36.880 --> 10:40.720 I am not happy with his book. 10:40.720 --> 10:45.720 The only reason I kept it around is just to remind me to hate it, because it's like, 10:45.720 --> 10:46.720 great. 10:46.720 --> 10:53.800 Well, the thing is, that's a lot of the books that I've noticed, like, I actually bought 10:53.800 --> 10:56.520 this one book that's spiral and I don't like spiral. 10:56.520 --> 10:58.400 But I love the guts of the book. 10:58.400 --> 11:02.120 So I ripped out every single page of this book. 11:02.120 --> 11:06.400 I just whole punched it and shoved it in my book. 11:06.400 --> 11:09.200 That's the thing about there's so many planners to try out. 11:09.200 --> 11:14.040 And I, like I said, I've been, as soon as I discovered this planner, that is all I've 11:14.040 --> 11:15.200 ever done. 11:15.200 --> 11:19.280 Like I have not, I mean, I've been talking to you about it for God knows forever. 11:19.280 --> 11:23.400 You know, when you were talking about planners, I was like, go to this planner. 11:23.400 --> 11:24.400 It's wonderful. 11:24.400 --> 11:29.360 It's literally changed the way that I organized my life. 11:29.360 --> 11:31.360 Things that you normally would forget. 11:31.360 --> 11:33.800 It's just, it's just wonderful in my opinion. 11:33.800 --> 11:38.560 But I was remembering something I had told you a couple months ago. 11:38.560 --> 11:44.040 Remember those, I told you about those clear sticky notes that I told you about? 11:44.040 --> 11:45.040 Clear sticky notes. 11:45.040 --> 11:50.640 Yeah, I was like, you didn't tell me about that, but it sounds cool, tell me about it. 11:50.640 --> 11:52.560 So they have these clear sticky notes. 11:52.560 --> 12:00.800 So I use, in my planners, I use tabs, I use these things to bookmark items, I use removable 12:00.800 --> 12:01.800 tabs, blah, blah. 12:01.800 --> 12:04.480 Well, like I said before, I'm in school. 12:04.480 --> 12:08.080 So a lot of times I will get, I have these clear sticky notes. 12:08.080 --> 12:10.880 I'll send you a link to put down below. 12:10.880 --> 12:15.320 They have them at the only place I've seen them so far is at staples. 12:15.320 --> 12:18.320 It sounds like packing tape, like you just use packing tape. 12:18.320 --> 12:22.520 No, no, it's like, it's a little bit matted only a little bit. 12:22.520 --> 12:28.920 The one thing I love about it is I can put it on, I put it on my textbook, one of my textbooks. 12:28.920 --> 12:32.280 And I traced out one of the diagrams. 12:32.280 --> 12:33.280 Is it perfect? 12:33.280 --> 12:34.320 No, because you're tracing it. 12:34.320 --> 12:36.800 But then you can put it in your book. 12:36.800 --> 12:44.400 So let's say you have like, you want to trace out a floral print or whatever. 12:44.400 --> 12:48.280 I mean, I don't know how much you guys would use it for, but it's great for students. 12:48.280 --> 12:52.000 Like, I have my tablet and it doesn't ruin my tablet. 12:52.000 --> 12:55.440 I put it on my tablet and I gently use it with pencil. 12:55.440 --> 13:01.240 And then when I took it off my tablet, I then put it in my, in my book, in my notebook. 13:01.240 --> 13:05.680 And then I traced it again and I was able to color it in, do all the things. 13:05.680 --> 13:07.920 And it's like, it's more vivid in there. 13:07.920 --> 13:08.920 It's just different. 13:08.920 --> 13:09.920 It's different. 13:09.920 --> 13:10.920 Staples. 13:10.920 --> 13:11.920 That's why I bought them. 13:11.920 --> 13:12.920 Clear sticky notes. 13:12.920 --> 13:13.920 Mm-hmm. 13:13.920 --> 13:18.680 And so my guess is they got like a little bit of adhesive at the top like a regular sticky 13:18.680 --> 13:24.240 note, but then the rest, the part that like, uh, hangs down our dangles is clear. 13:24.240 --> 13:25.240 Mm-hmm. 13:25.240 --> 13:26.240 Well, all of it's clear. 13:26.240 --> 13:27.680 The whole entire thing is clear. 13:27.680 --> 13:30.120 When you put it down, you barely notice it. 13:30.120 --> 13:31.480 Like I said, it's matted. 13:31.480 --> 13:32.960 It's not shiny. 13:32.960 --> 13:33.960 It's matted. 13:33.960 --> 13:36.520 So when you write on it, it doesn't feel like you're sliding. 13:36.520 --> 13:38.760 It feels like you're writing on legit paper. 13:38.760 --> 13:39.760 And then on top of that. 13:39.760 --> 13:40.760 What are your reasons? 13:40.760 --> 13:46.160 They have, no, but they do have two to tell the tales again. 13:46.560 --> 13:48.840 Well, I mean, no, because it's paper. 13:48.840 --> 13:49.840 So it's recyclable. 13:49.840 --> 13:50.840 It's not plastic. 13:50.840 --> 13:51.840 Oh. 13:51.840 --> 13:52.840 It's painted. 13:52.840 --> 13:53.840 It's matted. 13:53.840 --> 13:54.840 It's like paper. 13:54.840 --> 13:55.840 It's not. 13:55.840 --> 13:56.840 It's not. 13:56.840 --> 13:58.480 You're saying it's plastic. 13:58.480 --> 14:00.040 You're saying like paper. 14:00.040 --> 14:04.440 It didn't, you know, it doesn't feel like plastic. 14:04.440 --> 14:06.080 It doesn't feel like plastic. 14:06.080 --> 14:07.720 So I've got to send the link to this. 14:07.720 --> 14:09.080 I would be full with that. 14:09.080 --> 14:10.480 I've got to get a link of this. 14:10.480 --> 14:11.960 Because I mean, this sounds cool. 14:11.960 --> 14:12.960 It'll get in wrong. 14:12.960 --> 14:15.520 I'm, I'm, I'm interested unless we're killing whales. 14:15.520 --> 14:16.520 That's your deal. 14:16.520 --> 14:20.160 But, you know, then there's two different ones. 14:20.160 --> 14:22.240 There's one where the adhesive is just at the top. 14:22.240 --> 14:27.280 And then there's another one where the adhesive is at, it's all four corners. 14:27.280 --> 14:32.160 You know, now that I'm thinking about it, I'm wondering about like a page protector. 14:32.160 --> 14:38.280 And if you could use one of those dry race markers on those, you think you can try not? 14:38.280 --> 14:39.280 Is that my idea? 14:39.280 --> 14:40.560 I think it's kind of cool. 14:40.560 --> 14:41.960 I have a laminated. 14:41.960 --> 14:44.400 So I laminate a whole bunch of crap. 14:44.400 --> 14:47.000 I laminate anything I want to be reusable. 14:47.000 --> 14:51.760 But I guess you could do like, if you were doing like a bunch of math and stuff like that, 14:51.760 --> 14:57.960 you can have a bunch of just, it equations right there, laminated in the side of your 14:57.960 --> 14:58.960 journal. 14:58.960 --> 15:02.800 I guess if you wanted to custom calendar, there'll be another thing, you know, since you're 15:02.800 --> 15:06.480 going to be using it for the year or whatever, you could have it kind of laminated and 15:06.480 --> 15:07.480 stuck in there. 15:07.480 --> 15:08.480 Mm-hmm. 15:08.480 --> 15:09.480 Absolutely. 15:09.480 --> 15:10.480 Okay. 15:10.480 --> 15:12.160 So I'm going to send you the link right now. 15:12.400 --> 15:14.200 Yeah, because I definitely got to see. 15:14.200 --> 15:16.680 And please don't send that that a scammer. 15:16.680 --> 15:20.000 Link, did you think it was an accident? 15:20.000 --> 15:21.000 It was an accident. 15:21.000 --> 15:22.000 I didn't know. 15:22.000 --> 15:24.520 I'm going to have to wipe my computer after it doesn't fell. 15:24.520 --> 15:29.280 It was not a scammer, just Google being all dramatic. 15:29.280 --> 15:30.280 Yeah. 15:30.280 --> 15:31.280 So this is the one. 15:31.280 --> 15:34.280 It just doesn't, it doesn't feel like plastic. 15:34.280 --> 15:37.760 I got to put my rocket book away real quick. 15:37.760 --> 15:39.080 I can feel the year. 15:39.080 --> 15:42.080 Yeah, I can feel the fury bubbling up inside. 15:42.080 --> 15:43.080 I can put that away. 15:43.080 --> 15:47.120 You throw it in the trash, put it in the way in the trash. 15:47.120 --> 15:51.000 No, I put it in the top of my, I have two filing cabinets. 15:51.000 --> 15:54.040 I have one beside me at my desk and the other in the closet. 15:54.040 --> 15:56.400 And I put it in the one by my desk. 15:56.400 --> 16:00.640 So every time I open the top cabinet, I see the rocket book and I can get mad all over again. 16:00.640 --> 16:01.640 Pack rat. 16:01.640 --> 16:07.280 They can want to look at it and remember never ever. 16:07.280 --> 16:11.200 Because when you, when you see the marketing behind it, they marketed it so well. 16:11.200 --> 16:13.240 So it sounds like an excellent idea. 16:13.240 --> 16:17.520 Like one, one notebook and you never have to buy another one. 16:17.520 --> 16:19.800 And you can use it with technology, right? 16:19.800 --> 16:25.200 So basically take a photo of the pages and then are, you know, basically save your photos 16:25.200 --> 16:30.160 on your back up hard drive of these things that you wrote or whatever, right? 16:30.160 --> 16:32.360 The one notebook and you're good to go. 16:32.360 --> 16:35.720 But boy was, oh, it is terrible. 16:36.720 --> 16:39.760 Oh, that's so funny. 16:39.760 --> 16:47.680 I have several ideas of things that I have made that some that have just turned out 16:47.680 --> 16:51.160 fantastic and you learn as you go with a lot of the planner. 16:51.160 --> 16:56.680 So the one recommendation I have, I don't know how many people will buy stickers. 16:56.680 --> 17:01.080 Not me by this less is more, okay, less is more. 17:01.080 --> 17:03.200 Yeah, you're at a one to talk about them. 17:03.520 --> 17:08.240 Yeah, that's why that I learned for, that's why I learned from my mistake. 17:08.240 --> 17:11.640 But on my defense, I use all of it and you know I do. 17:11.640 --> 17:17.280 That's why that's why you should do less is more because you do use all of it. 17:17.280 --> 17:23.120 Yes, for me specifically, I'm a crafter and big on crafting and big on R. 17:23.120 --> 17:25.000 I'm big on girlyness, blah, blah. 17:25.000 --> 17:27.360 So I knew I wanted stickers. 17:27.360 --> 17:32.800 They have packets for the happy planner that are like the basic beginner, 17:32.800 --> 17:36.320 blah, blah, blah, one that basically have a couple of flowers, 17:36.320 --> 17:41.920 a couple of hearts, the basically, you know, may the months, 17:41.920 --> 17:44.880 they have some numbers in there, et cetera. 17:44.880 --> 17:48.080 You know, call me here, blah, blah, stuff. 17:48.080 --> 17:52.080 And then just get a regular planner because if you go to all out, 17:52.080 --> 17:55.040 you will waste your money if you end up hating it. 17:55.040 --> 17:58.880 Or if you end up just not using it or you don't have time. 17:58.880 --> 18:04.240 Example, the planner that you do, you do what we call us like planners. 18:04.240 --> 18:07.600 You do a bulletin planner basically. 18:07.600 --> 18:12.080 You use a notebook, you design your own blocks, you do your own thing. 18:12.080 --> 18:17.280 That's kind of, it's from scratch, you know, your own DIY planner. 18:17.280 --> 18:21.840 Mine's a Frankenstein planner, mine is just a whole bunch of crap shoved into one. 18:21.840 --> 18:25.520 I prefer my planner to be everything. 18:25.520 --> 18:29.600 I also like to make my planner cute and pretty and blah, 18:29.600 --> 18:33.920 blah, and you have that option with happy planner specifically, 18:33.920 --> 18:38.800 but they do have some that are dober plane. 18:38.800 --> 18:42.800 They also have some from happy planner that are undated, 18:42.800 --> 18:45.920 which a lot of people prefer to date their own planners. 18:45.920 --> 18:46.640 Yes. 18:46.640 --> 18:54.000 The only downside that I have is it's not something you're going to do in five minutes. 18:54.080 --> 18:59.040 It's something that you're to sit there and you're going to be committed to being there for like 18:59.040 --> 19:02.320 20, 30 minutes, just dating the whole 12 months. 19:02.320 --> 19:05.120 No, no, you don't even, here's the thing. 19:05.120 --> 19:08.000 You don't even date the whole 12 months. 19:08.000 --> 19:10.240 You date what you need when you need it. 19:10.240 --> 19:17.280 I'll, I'll know that, you know, okay, this month's going to be a busy one with several 19:17.280 --> 19:19.280 things that are coming up right now, right? 19:19.280 --> 19:23.360 So I'm going to automatically go ahead and get those few out of the way now. 19:23.360 --> 19:29.520 But then out those, I'll sprinkle some blanks in between there just so that way as things come up, 19:29.520 --> 19:31.920 you know, here you go and fill this out real quick. 19:31.920 --> 19:35.120 That way, I don't have as many empties at the end of the year. 19:35.120 --> 19:36.400 That makes sense. 19:36.400 --> 19:43.760 That makes sense because for me, I am more busy during the regular, I guess we'll say school year, 19:43.760 --> 19:45.920 than I am during the summer time. 19:45.920 --> 19:52.720 Like, I guess I can write my work schedule or doctors appointments or stuff like that 19:52.720 --> 19:59.600 or chores or whatever, but I'm not going to add my school life because I don't do school 19:59.600 --> 20:01.040 during the summertime. 20:01.040 --> 20:03.920 I primarily just do it during the school year. 20:03.920 --> 20:07.360 Summer time, section is much shorter. 20:07.360 --> 20:10.800 There's times I take them out, but I also do fillers. 20:10.800 --> 20:14.400 There's sometimes where I don't have anything and I'll just cover it with a sticker. 20:14.400 --> 20:17.760 Because I might have done something on, you know, Monday through Thursday, 20:17.760 --> 20:19.840 but I didn't do anything Friday in the weekend. 20:19.920 --> 20:22.240 But other people may not like it that way. 20:22.240 --> 20:28.080 So I can understand, like, specifically with you, you want to make it just rip it out. 20:28.080 --> 20:29.360 You have that option. 20:29.360 --> 20:33.040 Yeah, I want, I want some, whenever there's a page in the book, 20:33.040 --> 20:36.480 that's because something needed to be done that day. 20:36.480 --> 20:42.720 That's what I, if there's a blank page in there, that means I have just wasted the opportunity 20:42.720 --> 20:44.960 to, to journal something, you know what I mean? 20:44.960 --> 20:47.520 So I hate, I hate the idea of just, you know, 20:48.080 --> 20:53.760 putting this book away and there's so many pages in there that I could not take advantage of. 20:53.760 --> 20:58.800 Now with this, this new approach here where I can just get blanks and kind of, you know, manipulate 20:58.800 --> 21:03.520 them the way I need to. And, you know, I can get this blank one that you're talking about. 21:03.520 --> 21:06.640 What is it called, the blank is it just a blank calendar? 21:06.640 --> 21:11.840 Yeah, it's, it's literally just boxes. It's just, just think of, 21:11.840 --> 21:16.640 oh, so they don't do a lot of things on stuff or, or they do, it's just boxes. 21:16.640 --> 21:20.400 So think of how a normal calendar is, how it will be, 21:20.400 --> 21:28.320 her, let me open one up one, two, three, four, five, six. So they'll have six by seven boxes. 21:28.320 --> 21:32.240 That's how it will work. So then it will be completely empty. 21:32.240 --> 21:35.520 There's not dates in them, nothing because you don't know how the dates are going to work that 21:35.520 --> 21:41.120 month. And for that year, because, you know, every year is different. I mean, like, obviously 21:41.120 --> 21:45.200 things giving is always on the Thursday, Mother's Day and Father's Day are always on the Sunday. 21:45.280 --> 21:52.240 But Christmas is always on the 25th. So it could be on a Tuesday one year, or on a Saturday, 21:52.240 --> 21:57.280 or on a Monday. It doesn't, you know, that's why they have it in that type of section, 21:57.280 --> 22:02.320 in that type of stuff. I was thinking about more like for the days, not, not the full 22:02.320 --> 22:05.520 month of you. Do they have the blank ones for the days in the section? 22:05.520 --> 22:09.120 In the weeklies, or do you mean specifically one whole day? 22:09.120 --> 22:13.120 Or, or I guess it would also be the weekly as well, because in other words, 22:13.120 --> 22:16.880 it would give you the day in a few lines for you to jot down notes, that kind of thing? 22:17.760 --> 22:24.320 Absolutely. So what they do is they'll have, it'll be blank. So I'll have, let's say you're doing 22:24.320 --> 22:30.720 the horizontal lines that we talked about. On the left side, it'll say Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. 22:30.720 --> 22:34.960 And then on the other side, say Thursday, Friday, and then Saturday, Sunday will be next to each other 22:34.960 --> 22:39.520 in smaller blocks. But they'll be no date. They'll be absolutely no date on that. 22:39.520 --> 22:43.520 Is there an image in this could you link to that as well? Because I dial on them. 22:43.520 --> 22:49.360 I'm very interested in that one. I mean, if I don't do regular notebook, where I just have lines 22:49.360 --> 22:55.520 and I draw it in myself, that one will, that I'll be able to throw a few of those in with it. 22:55.520 --> 23:01.120 I mean, that has very much my style, but I'm going to tell you the transparent sticky note that 23:01.120 --> 23:11.040 you shared $5.19 a 36 little notes. Are you going to have you gone mad? No. 23:11.040 --> 23:16.560 I looked it up to see if there was any girls. I just happened to find it at 23:16.560 --> 23:23.920 Staples. I also had a coupon for them. So I only got them for $1.50. But I found them on Amazon for 23:23.920 --> 23:31.200 150 shades for $4. So they're cheaper. I looked at the material, Mr. I'm apparently killing the 23:31.200 --> 23:40.320 wheels. They're made out of pet material, PET and they're 100% water resistant and they're 23:40.320 --> 23:48.160 100% recyclable. Pet plastic is not single use. It is 100% recyclable. It's what it says on Google 23:48.240 --> 23:55.200 what PET stands for. Well, we understand that Google is not to be trusted. Well, you know, 23:55.200 --> 23:59.840 I'm about to not send you this undated pages, but you're scam links. Or I'm going to make sure 23:59.840 --> 24:07.840 I send you a scam link with that and tell you what it is. Be forced to click it. No, no, it's fine. 24:07.840 --> 24:12.800 It's fine. I just opened it. It's really fine. I'm on it. As soon as I click on it, I'll just connect 24:13.600 --> 24:19.360 it for me in a minute. Your whole computer crashes start smoking smoke. Just like your gravy did. 24:25.040 --> 24:29.920 Well, I got the fire department on speed down now. So it's okay. Sounds about right. Yeah, 24:29.920 --> 24:33.920 the great thing about happy planar is you can just make it your own. That's the thing. You can 24:33.920 --> 24:41.840 make it 100% your own. You can make it however you want. If you have kids, you can have their 24:41.840 --> 24:50.400 kids schedule on there. I've seen, I've seen people use it for like soccer tournaments and X, Y, 24:50.400 --> 24:56.800 and D, not just as a regular planner, but they have like more involved. A big, they actually started 24:56.800 --> 25:02.240 making a teacher version for the happy planner. Like, it's, it's a huge one. It's, it's the big 25:02.240 --> 25:08.480 planner. And it's specifically the teacher's version. I actually bought one one year for my schooling. 25:08.480 --> 25:15.120 I changed it up about like I put stickers covering certain parts of it. So I can make it for school 25:15.120 --> 25:20.960 specifically because I liked the how it had horizontal blocks instead of the vertical blocks. 25:20.960 --> 25:26.240 It was wonderful. It was wonderful. And I still have the cover. Literally, it's right next to me. 25:26.240 --> 25:31.280 And I use it as my notebook for school. And it says school days on it. And it has an apple, 25:31.280 --> 25:35.680 glasses, and a pen and paper on it. And it's really cute. It's a durable cover. And it's for 25:36.400 --> 25:40.880 the teachers. But I just use the cover for the whole my paper for my notebooks. 25:41.440 --> 25:48.320 And it makes me remember that this is, yeah, it's awesome. So that's, they have so many different ones. 25:48.320 --> 25:54.400 They have some for parents, like a specific one for parents. So you really just have to like 25:54.400 --> 26:03.200 go out and look on specifically what is good for you. Like, what are you a journaler? If you are, 26:03.200 --> 26:11.280 then I recommend or happy planner specifically horizontal lines, or they have another one called 26:11.280 --> 26:19.280 the dashboard layout. It's still horizontal lines, but it's all on one page and not two separate pages. 26:19.280 --> 26:25.440 It's kind of one week congested into one page. I'm going to look this up real quick here. 26:25.440 --> 26:33.440 Look at that happy planner that I showed layout. Is that didn't make my sense? I couldn't really 26:33.440 --> 26:40.480 picture it. Yeah. Oh wait. It's just, I think I see it. No, that I don't know about that one. 26:40.480 --> 26:46.640 Okay, I will send you a link. Yeah, it looks like it's got too much going on for me. I mean, I kind of 26:46.640 --> 26:51.600 like the Monday Tuesday Wednesday thing over there on the other side. That kind of looks pretty good. Like, 26:51.600 --> 26:57.680 I could just write notes into that. And I could write my own dates on to them, which is kind of good. 26:57.680 --> 27:03.120 If it's the same one, I mean. So they, they, they, they're all denamed differently. So the 27:03.120 --> 27:12.320 horizontal layout is primarily for people that do journaling like myself and you. They, they changed a lot 27:12.320 --> 27:18.320 of them. So a lot of them are all different types of styles nowadays. So the one that I'm staring at 27:18.400 --> 27:24.000 right now is called the dashboard layer. And I'll send you this link on one side. I'll have like 27:24.000 --> 27:30.240 bulletins for the week and I'll have like phone calls, make or errands to do or things you need to buy, 27:30.240 --> 27:36.240 et cetera, et cetera. On the other side on the right side of the page, we'll have eight squares 27:36.800 --> 27:42.960 that are lined in each square for you to make notes. It's for note taking for that same thing for the 27:43.040 --> 27:47.760 regular horizontal layout. Yeah. That's, that's what I'm, that that part that you're talking 27:47.760 --> 27:52.560 about the eight squares on the other side. Yeah. That's the part that I like. I want that for 27:52.560 --> 27:58.560 everywhere though. Like for both sides, like you want two weeks at a time, or you just want 27:59.280 --> 28:06.800 lined blocks. I like lined block because no matter like I don't even, honestly, I don't even 28:06.800 --> 28:12.160 need it to have the Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday thing on it because Monday might be jam packed, 28:12.160 --> 28:16.320 but then I might not do anything again until Wednesday. You know what I mean? So Tuesday will be 28:16.320 --> 28:22.480 empty. So that's the space I didn't use. So I'd rather not have it labeled where I could just 28:22.480 --> 28:27.680 label it myself for whatever I need. So I think regular just horizontal lines might just do me 28:27.680 --> 28:35.040 better because I'm really picky about that. I can, I can see that. I mean, the only thing I can 28:35.040 --> 28:41.200 think of that you can do is just wait it out. I mean, I have white out that I use, but, oh no, 28:41.680 --> 28:47.440 preferably the white out that I use is not the liquid white, white out. Well, they don't roll. 28:47.440 --> 28:52.640 Yeah, they don't even sell the liquid one anymore, do they? Yep, they sell do. I remember um, 28:52.640 --> 28:57.760 it's just to get high off of that. Kids can get high off at anything. Which I always thought was 28:57.760 --> 29:04.000 weird, but I mean, you know, hey, whatever. Each drone, I guess. Yeah, you know, I don't even know 29:04.000 --> 29:10.640 how you would know to do that, but sure. Everything is accidental. You're right. 29:10.720 --> 29:14.560 If you think about it, everything's accidental. It just happened to happen. 29:14.560 --> 29:19.600 Didn't think about it. Just, you know, I wonder what this smells like. Do you imagine that, though? 29:19.600 --> 29:24.560 One of your friends just sort of lean over to you and aren't class and just sort of, you know, 29:24.560 --> 29:29.920 get close to tell you to come here and you lean over and it's like, oh my god, I am lit as 29:29.920 --> 29:37.680 I'm gonna get in this. Oh, we're here. Scratch and sniff. Here, Scratch and sniff this. 29:38.240 --> 29:41.920 And that that was another thing. That's why they Sharpies had stopped doing those 29:42.640 --> 29:48.560 smell markers. His kids were literally smelling them way too much. It's still a Sharpie. 29:49.120 --> 29:53.520 You remember, I don't know if you remember those smell markers. Because they used a smell like the 29:54.160 --> 30:03.120 Terrible. They smelled how does color smell? Well, they were supposed to smell similar to the 30:03.120 --> 30:09.600 color. But really, they were just really few me. You couldn't really tell them terrible in my opinion. 30:09.600 --> 30:14.480 I always thought they smelled awful. Yeah, they do. Yeah, I'm thinking I'm just going to, 30:14.480 --> 30:20.640 because especially with happy planar, I think they just do too much. It's a very feminine 30:20.640 --> 30:25.840 base. I told you that. It's very feminine. I can very stand a look at it. I just need to get off 30:25.840 --> 30:34.000 the website. How do I exit? I'm a senior link of the horizontal line one that I was telling you about 30:34.000 --> 30:40.320 earlier. And this is the horizontal line. This is one that I found that was the most. This is 30:40.320 --> 30:47.840 undated and everything. And where it says November at the top and the person put the dates on there 30:48.000 --> 30:55.600 and wrote Friday. That's all that they did. You can zoom in to see more of it. But the only thing 30:55.600 --> 31:03.360 that's wrote on there is Monday through Sunday. But everything else is done yourself. I like it. 31:03.360 --> 31:09.280 The how it's nice and blocked. But I don't want to Monday. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 31:09.280 --> 31:16.640 kind of thing. I just want blocks with lines. The only thing I don't know if they have it with happy 31:16.720 --> 31:24.560 planar themselves. But I know that they do. I think you are best. That is to look for a 31:25.440 --> 31:32.880 I'm going to just get lined paper. If they just got lined paper. The rest I could do myself. 31:32.880 --> 31:39.280 I could just write in what I need when I need it. Absolutely. But the disc thing, I think is a good 31:39.280 --> 31:47.360 thing for you. So my recommendation is to get just get one of the notebooks from Happy Planner. 31:47.360 --> 31:53.600 And just take out 90% of the paper. Last time I bought one of the notebooks. 31:53.600 --> 31:57.920 Wait, actually sell just a regular notebook? Yeah, that was telling you about that earlier. They sell. 31:57.920 --> 32:05.040 They call them Happy Planner Notes. Without without all the girly crap all over. 32:05.600 --> 32:13.760 Uh, kind of. It has no planning in it. But again, I told you Happy Planner is primarily 32:13.760 --> 32:19.360 feminine. I said that I mentioned that the first time. Happy Planner is very, very feminine. 32:19.360 --> 32:26.720 I can't remember. No, it's called Happy Planner Notes. I'm not no book. Just notes. 32:26.720 --> 32:32.240 I'm on a, I'm on a web thing. It's got notebooks and journals. And I'm looking at 32:32.240 --> 32:39.440 dot grid dot line line. There we go. Line looks good. Was lettering. Let me see what that's all about. 32:39.440 --> 32:45.360 Oh, no, see in this super paint and all kinds of crap. They have some that are just white. Like I'm 32:45.360 --> 32:51.200 literally staring at the one next to me. And it's all white. It's nothing on it. It's just white. 32:51.200 --> 32:58.160 But the only thing is the dots on it are like a sage green. That's it. So you can get some 32:58.240 --> 33:04.560 that are chill. You really can. But again, Happy Planner specifically is a feminine brand. 33:04.560 --> 33:10.800 It's owned by three women. They're two or three women. And yeah, I might have to pass on the 33:10.800 --> 33:16.800 hat because I swear, I don't know what's going on. Like I can't even look at it without feeling 33:16.800 --> 33:22.880 like just doing too much. So just stick to the disk bound specifically. And I recommend that for most 33:22.880 --> 33:30.000 people that disk bound. The reason why I like heavy planner isn't because it has. Yes, 33:30.000 --> 33:35.360 absolutely. They have them on Etsy. They have them on Amazon. They have everywhere. You can get just. 33:36.160 --> 33:42.160 Yep. I should discount. But I believe Happy Planner was the first set of people that started 33:42.160 --> 33:47.520 doing disk bound. Well, they may have been the first to really just started, but they got a little too 33:47.600 --> 33:53.920 much going on. I got they're not inclusive. It's for women that want to be pretty. Yeah. 33:53.920 --> 33:59.760 What's your judgment yourself? I'm just saying. I am very proud of these people. Like they've 33:59.760 --> 34:09.200 done really well for themselves. Like really, really well. So I'm all for it. And I like I like buying 34:09.200 --> 34:14.640 their notes because you can get there's sometimes their planners like their covers for the planners 34:14.720 --> 34:19.680 are just sometimes they're hideous. But then I'll love the guts from the planner. But the 34:19.680 --> 34:24.720 like the cover is just terrible. Not I don't want to say hideous. That's just mean. But some of 34:24.720 --> 34:30.720 them are like doodling or something. And I'll just buy a notebook that I love the planner cover for. 34:30.720 --> 34:39.600 And then there you go. I just they sell the lined disk bound paper refill 11, 34:40.560 --> 34:48.480 eight and a half by 11, the line paper for a disk notebooks. We're at Amazon. Yeah, I'm looking at 34:48.480 --> 34:59.920 it on Amazon. It looks like $250 sheets. I told you the paper is really expensive. That's why 34:59.920 --> 35:07.600 by just the notebooks because the thickness of that paper is really expensive. I'm going to 35:07.600 --> 35:18.880 make me run away. I'm not. Look at this one. This one is Daly's. So it's all like it's a daily plan. 35:18.880 --> 35:25.360 I mean, it is a really specific. Yeah, now this because it's going to go from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. 35:25.360 --> 35:32.720 I'm limited in the amount of time I can schedule. And what if there's one thing that cover that 35:32.720 --> 35:39.520 is say is going to happen at 8, but it's got multiple parts to it. So it'll have to be written all 35:39.520 --> 35:46.400 away down into like 10 or something like that. You know, so no, I like that they have that option. 35:47.680 --> 35:55.120 But I just need lines with. Okay. Well, then with lines, I can make whatever I need after that. 35:55.120 --> 36:01.440 Dude, this one that I'm looking at right now is exactly what you're talking about. Plus, 36:01.520 --> 36:05.680 it's disbound and it has a cover to it. Let me, let me see this last one to you. 36:05.680 --> 36:13.920 This is, yeah, this one's pretty nice right here. Yeah. It's 11 bucks. It's about five years to get to you, 36:13.920 --> 36:21.920 but you see the delivery time? Where? Let me just go down and see there. Usually ships. Oh, my god. 36:22.880 --> 36:31.280 That's a whole month. Thank you, but I'm going to pass on that. All right, ladies and 36:31.280 --> 36:37.840 jats.
